Nokia to Recall 46 Million Defective Batteries
Posted by gmtristan on August 16, 2007 · 1 Comment
When I heard this over TV, I thought this recall was sparked by a report of certain Nokia owner (here in the Philippines) that her batteries suddenly overheated and almost burned her house. Well, although not entirely due to that bit of news, it has something to do with it.
In an official statement, leading cellphone maker Nokia announced that it will recall batteries of the BL-5C series since they “identified that in very rare cases the affected batteries could potentially experience over heating initiated by a short circuit while charging, causing the battery to dislodge. Nokia is working closely with relevant local authorities to investigate this situation.”

You can try cramming a battery with more juice into your phone. Sometimes this may involve modification or using a dremel tool but well-worth the effort. I know certain Nokias will safely fit “juicier” batteries..
